A waterproof adhesive bandage or a finger cot should be applied over the bandage on a food handler's finger to ensure it stays clean and dry. Additionally, a disposable glove can be worn over the bandage to further protect both the wound and the food being handled. It’s important to ensure that the bandage is secure and does not interfere with the food handling process.
A finger cots or finger guards should be applied over a bandage on a food handler's finger. These items help protect the bandage from moisture and contamination while also providing a barrier to prevent any potential contact with food. It's essential to ensure that the finger is properly covered to maintain hygiene standards in food handling.
Once an emergency bandage has been applied, you should be able to fit one to two fingers underneath it. This ensures that the bandage is secure enough to control bleeding while still allowing for circulation and preventing excessive pressure on the wound site. If you can fit more than two fingers, the bandage may be too loose, and if you can't fit a finger, it may be too tight and could compromise blood flow.
You should put direct pressure on it first and then you should bandage it after.
